Hello, I was trying to build a SCADA for a furnace with what I have learned so far from node-red forums. I'm sharing the flow below. I was thinking if there is a better way to do it by showing entire process rather showing process blocks.  
[flows.json](https://discourse.nodered.org/uploads/short-url/x2aOjTs5OFtCaPbqchWiYUicQet.json) (79.3 KB)

I tried SVG node and being new to coding, have no idea how to use it. If any one can share a flow using svg node it would be of great help. I tried to work on example given with the node but couldn't understand much. 😭

Hi @sahsha,  
Can you describe a bit more in detail what you are looking for? Because the [readme](https://github.com/bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-ui-svg) pages are full of examples, and there are also a series of step by step tutorials on the [wiki](https://github.com/bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-ui-svg/wiki) pages. And the short animation at the start of the readme page shows how to get started to display a simple circle.  
Bart

right now I'm trying to understand how to use SVG format. It's actually me who lacks the required coding skills. I see you're the creator of SVG node 👍. Will ask you for help if I stuck somewhere. Till then I want to figure it out myself.

I also wanted that if someone have created something similar which might help with the inspiration I need.  
Just for your reference, below is the process I want to create. where raw material moving from one location to another can be shown and other parameters like temperatures, fan, door closing, etc can also be shown/animated.

There is a HMI demo in the examples (CTRL+I, examples, ui-svg)

Ah ok. Well the readme page assumes that you know a bit of SVG. Because there are already so many SVG tutorials available on the web, it would be rather silly if I would create another one.

But of course the SVG node has grown over time due to a huge number of feature requests. And the documentation has grown also meanwhile. So perhaps I need to add a getting started tutorial.

Unfortunately I don't now anything about Scada systems. So hopefully others join to give you some advice.  
From a technical point of view, your example seems rather doable. I you know how to draw a rectangle, you are already half way 😉

Here is the example that Steve has created at the time being:
